Momentum Builds For 2015 Singapore Yacht Show

Published: Friday, 26 September 2014

The Singapore Yacht Show 2015 is already gearing up, with well-known brands signing up to exhibit again this year. As well, there will be lots of names making their debut at the upcoming fifth edition Apr 23-26.

Dutch builder Heesen Yachts, known for its superyachts including last year’s M/Y Galactica Star, will be returning in April.

Another returning brand, Middle East builder Gulf Craft, has already registered three yachts. The company builds production and semi-custom vessels from day boats to superyachts.

Dutch company X-Yachts will be showcasing its range of high-tech racer-cruisers and family cruisers for the first time next year.

Netherlands-based Vandutch, builder of powerful boats from 30- to 75-feet, will be another first-time exhibitor at the Singapore Yacht Show.

In addition to a stunning array of yachts, there will also be plenty of marine-related products on display from companies such as Griffin Group, with its Microbloc filtration systems, International Paint and Lloyd Marine – the leading charter company in Singapore.

“We're thrilled to see so many new companies signing up, but even more proud that so many of our longstanding supporters are coming back for next year’s edition – it proves we are achieving the right results,” says Singapore Yacht Show Managing Director Andy Treadwell. “We continue to offer a varied and interesting mix of companies, growing in number each year, and our on-water space is booking up really fast. The news is clearly spreading as to how much potential there is in this part of the world and SYS 2015 already looks to be continuing our consistent trend of growth.”
